New traffic arrangement at Tiruvanmiyur

Staff Reporter

It will come into force on June 30

CHENNAI: A new traffic arrangement will come into force at the Tiruvanmiyur junction in the city on June 30.

It is being introduced in view of the growth in traffic on Lattice Bridge Road (Kalki Krishnamoorthy Salai) and Tiruvalluvar Salai.

Vehicles coming from the Adyar police station side will not be allowed to take a right turn at the junction.

Turn

An official release on Friday said all vehicles coming on Lattice Bridge Road from the Adyar police station side, and intending to turn right to West Avenue towards Old Mahabalipuram Road, would necessarily have to take the old bridge.

For going to Tidel Park, such vehicles should take the bridge and take a U turn at SRP Tools (junction).

Right turn to Tiruvalluvar Salai (East Coast Road), towards Tiruvanmiyur bus depot, from L.B. Road would be prohibited.

Vehicles coming on L.B. Road from Tiruvanmiyur Old Bridge Road, and intending to turn right turn to ECR, would have to take West Avenue and take a U turn at Tiruvanmiyur new bridge.

Arrangement based on study

The arrangement is based on the recommendations of a study on the volume of traffic on L.B Road and Tiruvalluvar Salai.

The new arrangements will be implemented on an experimental basis for about 30 days.
